True... it IS part of the canon. That much is indisputable. But what part of the canon is the question.

After all, we should remind ourselves often that being "canon" with Transformers and being "consistent" or "definitive" are not the same things.

While the Crumplezone remold may be canon (ie: part of the overall body of officially sanctioned extended fiction), I think it's worth questioning the context and definitiveness of that incarnation of Primal.
